need help with calculations for my chemistry lab! (Classic Titration 1 Lab) 

first picture is the data table that was gathered during the lab in which will be used to do the calculations.

second picture explains the intro, purpose, and the procedure of the whole lab as a reference if the data table or the whole thing does not make sense. 

I'd really appreciate it if I could get help on the calculations. Thank you!

Introduction
One of the most common problems dealt with by
chemists is to determine how much of something is
present in a sample. If the sample contains acid or
base, the determination of amount is usually determined
by titration. Acid-base titrations can be used to
measure the concentration of an acid or base in solution

and to calculate the molar mass of an unknown acid or
base.
Titration is a method of volumetric analysis – the use of
volumetric measurements to analyze an unknown. In
acid base chemistry, titration is most often used to
analyze the amount of acid or base in a sample or
solution. Consider a solution containing an unknown
amount of hydrochloric acid. In a titration experiment,
a known volume of the hydrochloric acid solution
would be titrated by slowly adding a standard solution
of a strong base such as sodium hydroxide. The titrant,
(the base in this case) reacts with and consumes the
acid via a neutralization reaction. The exact volume of

titration – the point at which stoichiometric amounts of
acid and base have been combined.

8)
Knowing the exact concentration and volume of the

number of moles of hydrochloric acid present in the

Indicators are usually added to acid-base titrations to
detect the equivalence, or end point. The end point is
the point at which the indicator changes color and
signals that the equivalence point has been reached.
For example, in the HCl/ NaOH titration described
above, the pH of the solution is acidic before the
equivalence point, and basic afterwards. A pH of
exactly 7 corresponds to the neutral products, water and
sodium chloride.

wash bottle to rinse the sides of the flask.
The progress of a titration can be followed by
measuring the pH of the solution being analyzed as a
function of the volume of titrant added. A plot of the
resulting data is called a pH or titration curve. Titration
curves allow a precise determination of the end point
